In an educational environment, a teacher may teach a lesson by presenting educational content to students in a classroom setting. The educational content may be organized into a presentation, such as a slide deck, which may be displayed by a display device, such as a projector or interactive whiteboard, so that the presentation may be viewed by all of the students in the classroom. During presentation of the slide deck, the teacher may lecture about each slide and the students may take notes about the lecture via notepads. The teacher may ask questions of the class, and one or more students may respond orally. Although many interesting ideas may emerge as a result of such class discussion, it is difficult for teachers to create a record of the ideas for students to refer to later after class using current presentation technologies. Further, some students may feel intimidated about speaking in class, or the sheer size of the class may preclude having each student speak on a topic. In addition, since the order of the presentation is prearranged, it is often difficult for the teacher to change the presentation dynamically to address topics that have arisen during the discussion. Current presentation technologies do not adequately address these concerns.
A computerized educational presentation system is provided. The system may include a presentation application program. The presentation application program may include a presentation module operable in an author mode to create an educational presentation having a plurality of educational resources. The educational resources may include at least a poll. Further, the presentation module may be operable in a presentation mode to make the educational presentation accessible for viewing at a plurality of student computing devices. The presentation application program further may include an interaction module. During the author mode, the interaction module may update one or more educational resources of the educational presentation in response to receiving user edits via an author tool. During the presentation mode, the interaction module may receive student feedback at a teacher computing device in response to presentation of the poll at the plurality of student computing devices.
This Summary is provided to introduce a selection of concepts in a simplified form that are further described below in the Detailed Description. This Summary is not intended to identify key features or essential features of the claimed subject matter, nor is it intended to be used to limit the scope of the claimed subject matter. Furthermore, the claimed subject matter is not limited to implementations that solve any or all disadvantages noted in any part of this disclosure.
The present disclosure is directed to facilitating presentation of interactive content distributed to a plurality of computers for display to an audience. The interactive content may promote presenter-audience interaction and collaboration in real-time which may enrich the presentation experience of the audience by engaging the audience in learning in an integrated manner as opposed to merely broadcasting a presentation to the audience, without opportunity for audience interaction in the presentation. The present disclosure is described in an educational setting utilizing a teacher-student paradigm; however the concepts described herein are broadly applicable to a variety of presentation settings, such as business meetings, academic conferences, governmental and civic gatherings, etc.
In some embodiments, the presentation application program 102 may be stored in a storage device remote from the teacher computing device and accessible by the teacher computing device. The presentation application program 102 may be executable by the teacher computing device as well as other computing devices of the computerized educational presentation system.
Presentation application program 102 may be utilized at teacher computing device 104 to create an educational presentation 110 that may be distributed for viewing and interaction at a plurality of computing devices of system 100, via network 112. Network 112 may facilitate wired and/or wireless communication between computing devices connected to the network. Further, network 112 may include various interconnected networking devices that facilitate communication. It will be appreciated that network 112 may, for example, include a local area network (LAN) and/or a wide area network (WAN), such as the Internet.
Educational presentation 110 may include a plurality of educational resources including educational resource 114. Educational resource 114 may include virtually any suitable presentation file type. For example, an educational resource may be an image file, a video file, a slide deck file, an audio file, an executable file, or a document file. In some cases, an educational resource may include interactive content such as a form, executable file, or script. Such interactive content may be used to implement a quiz, poll, collaboration page or other educational assessment mechanism that may be used by a teacher to assess the understanding of a plurality of students in a classroom setting, for example.
Presentation application program 102 may include a presentation module 116 operable in an author mode 118 to display an educational presentation for creation or editing. During author mode 118, presentation module 116 may be configured to display the educational presentation only at the computing device on which the educational presentation is being created/edited without being accessible for viewing at other computing devices.
Upon creation/editing, an educational presentation may be stored for future use. In the illustrated embodiment, educational presentation 110 is stored in storage device 106 of teacher computing device 104. Educational presentation may be accessed by a user (e.g., teacher) locally on teacher computing device 104 or may be accessed remotely over network 112 by a user (e.g., student) on a remote computing device, such as student computing device 128, subject to permissions set for the educational presentation. It will be appreciated that a plurality of educational presentations may be stored in a storage device for future use and may be retrieved by a computing device for presentation at a plurality of computing devices or for editing locally on single computing device. It will further be appreciated that since the computer network 112 may include wireless communication capabilities, the remote computing device may be configured to wirelessly connect to the computer network 112.
Furthermore, presentation module 116 of presentation application program 102 may be operable in presentation mode 120 to facilitate display of an educational presentation for viewing and interaction at a plurality of computing devices in real-time. In particular, during presentation mode 120, presentation application program 102 may be configured to generate a variety of graphical user interfaces (GUIs) having independent views of educational presentation 110. The independent views may be defined by a teacher to differ in content or appearance from each other; although it will be appreciated that content may be shared between the independent views. Moreover, the different GUIs may include various different tools and/or visual panes that may affect the way in which a user interacts with a GUI.
For example, during presentation mode 120, presentation module 116 of presentation application program 102 may be configured to generate a teacher view 130 presented on a teacher display device 132. Teacher view 130 may display educational presentation 110 as well as other information pertinent to the teacher, such as student information, interactive content information, presentation controls, etc. A student view 134 may be presented on a student display device 136 of student computing device 128. Student computing device 128 may include virtually any suitable type of computing device. In one example, student computing device 128 may be a portable device such that a student may easily transport the computing device to a lecture, or such that a student may view an educational presentation from a remote location. For example, a student computing device may include a personal computing device, portable laptop computing device, a personal digital assistant, a mobile communication device, etc. Student view 134 may display educational presentation 110 as well as other information pertinent to each student on student display device 136.
A class view 138 may be presented on a class display device 140. In one example, the class display device is a network connected projection device in communication with the teacher computing device. Typically, the class view may have a basic presentation format which may be viewed by a plurality of students in a classroom setting. If desired, a browser view 142 may be provided, which is accessible from a server computing device over network 112 by a remote computing device 146 via a web browser application program 144. The browser view, for example, may be an instance of the student view, which is viewable remotely via a web browser operated on a wide variety of devices, and which provides a subset of the functionality available in the student view. Example independent views of an educational presentation generated by the presentation application program 102 will be discussed in further detail below with reference to
The type of independent view presented at a computing device may be based on the type of user and/or the type of computing device accessing the educational presentation. In some cases, the type of independent view may be determined by presentation logic 126 of an interaction module 122 of presentation application program 102, discussed below, based on input received upon initiation of presentation mode 120. For example, a teacher may provide specific access/login information in order to edit an educational presentation or view the teacher view of an educational presentation. As another example, a student may provide student computing device information (e.g., IP address, URL, login, etc.) to access the student view of an educational presentation.
The interaction module 122 of presentation application program 102 may be configured to receive input to control creation/editing of an educational presentation as well as to control viewing of and interaction with an educational presentation. Control of presentation application program 102 based on received inputs may differ based on the mode of operation (i.e., presentation mode or author mode). During author mode 118, interaction module 122 may be configured to update one or more educational resource 114 of educational presentation 110 in response to receiving user edits via an author tool 124 of interaction module 122.
Author tool 124 may have various functions such as distributing an educational presentation, creating a poll, creating poll feedback, creating an educational presentation, editing an educational presentation and/or an educational resource, annotating an educational presentation and/or an educational resource, and creating a collaboration page. For example, a user edit may be received at the teacher computing device as a result of a user selecting a function on the author tool which adds an image-file-type educational resource to the educational presentation.
Presentation mode 120 may be initiated in response to selection of a “distribute” operation of author tool 124. Upon initiation of presentation mode 120, independent views of educational presentation 110 may be displayed on display devices of computing devices of system 100. For example, a student view (S) of educational presentation 110 may be distributed to student computing device 128. Student view (S) may display poll 148 to promote real-time student-teacher interaction. Each student may provide feedback 152 to poll 148 which may be sent to teacher computing device 104. Further, during presentation mode 120, interaction module 122 may be configured to receive feedback 152 at teacher computing device 104 in response to presentation of poll 148 at a plurality of student computing devices in student view (S).
Presentation logic 126 of interaction module 122 may be configured to generate a summary (See, e.g., summary 316 in
Furthermore, student view (S) may display a collaboration page (CP) 150 to promote real-time student-teacher collaboration. During display of collaboration (CP) 150, users (e.g., teacher and/or students) may provide collaborative input at a computing device, such as teacher computing device 104 or student computing device 128. Also, in some cases, class display device 140 may include an interactive whiteboard that is configured to receive input, and users may provide input to the class display device.
Interaction module 122 may be configured to receive teacher annotations and/or student annotations 153 based on input at the various computing devices. Annotations may include virtually any type of supplemental content which may enhance the educational presentation, such as notes, questions, files, etc. Presentation logic 126 of interaction module 122 may be configured to update educational presentation 110 with the teacher annotations and/or selected student annotations in response to presentation of the collaboration page at the plurality of student computing devices. In other words, any or all teacher annotations may be displayed in student view (S) among other independent views. Also, one or more student annotations 153 may be selected from the plurality of student annotations 153 collectively received at the teacher computing device for display in the student view (S) as well as other independent views. In one example, selection of a student annotation for display in student view (S) may be based on user input at the teacher computing device, such as a teacher selection of a specified student annotation. It will be appreciated that the interaction module may be configured to update the educational presentation with teacher and/or student annotations other than when a collaboration page is presented. For example, a teacher may annotate a slide of slide deck with additional content during presentation of the slide.
Presentation application program 102 may be configured to be at least partially executable on student computing device 128. Presentation application may be stored in storage device 154 and executed by processor 156 of student computing device 128. In some embodiments, during presentation mode 120, a local version of the educational presentation may be viewable on student display device 136. The local version of the educational presentation may be editable by the user via interaction module 122 at student computing device 128. Further, at student computing device 128, presentation application program 102 may include a note-taking module 158 configured to receive student annotations to supplement the local version of the educational presentation. Although the version of the educational presentation is referred to as being local to the student computing device, it will be appreciated that student computing device 128 may be configured to store the local version in storage that is accessible to the student computing device, such as local storage device 154 of student computing device 128, or the networked storage device 106 of teacher computing device 104. It will be appreciated that each student may interact with a local version of the educational presentation at a respective student computing device. Each local version of the educational presentation may include the same educational resources and teacher annotations; however each version additionally may include annotations of the particular student received via the note-taking module 158.
Student annotations 153 also may be used to promote student-teacher interaction and collaborative learning. In particular, student annotations 153 from each of a plurality of student computing devices may be sent to the teacher computing device. Further, one of the student annotations 153 may be selected as a representative example for presentation in student view (S) as well as other independent views so that the example may be shared with all students. By dynamically updating the educational presentation with teacher and/or student annotations, the educational presentation may be enhanced with supplemental content that may enrich the students' learning experience.
Furthermore, in some embodiments, an educational presentation that is updated with teacher and/or student annotations may be stored for later use. The updated educational presentation may be stored locally at a computing device (e.g., a local version may be saved at a student computing device). Alternatively, the updated educational presentation may be stored in a remote storage device that is accessible by the student computing device and/or the teacher computing device.
Teacher view 130 may include a presentation pane 204 which may display interactive content 206 of an educational presentation. In the illustrated embodiment, interactive content 206 includes the currently displayed educational resource of the educational presentation. The educational resource is supplemented with a teacher annotation 208 which may be generated from input at the teacher computing device, such as from a stylus, for example.
Teacher view 130 may include an educational resource preview pane 210 which may display a miniaturized list of educational resources in the educational presentation for reference by the teacher during presentation of the educational presentation to the students.
Teacher view 130 may include a student feedback/annotations pane 212 that displays student feedback and/or annotations upon receiving such feedback or annotations at the teacher computing device. The teacher may generate a feedback summary via author tool 124 based on the student feedback that is displayed in the student feedback/annotations pane 212. Further, the teacher may select one of the student annotations displayed in student feedback/annotations pane 212 for display in presentation pane 304 in student view 134 (See
To monitor the activity of the students, the teacher view 130 may further be configured to display a pane in which a desktop of one or more student computing devices are mirrored. For example, by displaying a desktop of a specific student, the teacher can check in on the progress of the student in making an annotation, completing a poll, or completing another task. By displaying the desktops of a group of students, the teacher may gauge the progress of the class as a whole, and appropriately modify the tempo or content of the lesson.
Student view 134 may include an educational resource preview pane 310 which may display a miniaturized list of educational resources in the educational presentation for reference by a student during presentation of the educational presentation.
Student view 134 may include a note-taking pane 312 in which a student may input notes and/or annotations. In the illustrated embodiment, the note-taking pane 312 includes a student annotation 153 supplementing the interactive content of the educational presentation in the student view, the student annotation being generated from input at the student computing device. The student annotations 153 entered in note-taking pane 312 may be integrated into a version of the educational presentation which may be stored in a storage device accessible by the student computing device for later use by the student. In some embodiments, the student annotations may be transmitted to the teacher computing device for evaluation and/or incorporation into a class view, for example, according to teacher-specified settings, if so desired.
Student view 134 may include a student feedback field 302 in which a student may enter feedback 152 to be sent to the teacher computing device. Feedback field 302 may be used by a student to answer a poll question, submit a collaborative annotation to a collaboration page, and/or submit a question or comment to the teacher, for example. The depicted feedback field 302 presents a poll to the user. Alternatively, the feedback field 302 may be a text input box, for example, that is provided for submitting questions or comments, or annotations in response to a request for feedback from the teacher.
In some embodiments, browser view 142 may include a presentation video 506 which may display video imagery of the teacher presenting the educational presentation. In the case that the browser view is accessed during the presentation, the video may be streamed to the remote computing device in real-time. Alternatively, the video may be prerecorded and may be downloaded or streamed to the remote computing device. In some embodiments, the browser view may provide a subset of the functionality provided in the student view. For example, the browser view may be configured to view content distributed by the teacher, and to respond to polls, but may not be configured to enable users to make annotations.
At 604, the method may include during the presentation session, providing access to a browser view of the educational presentation accessible remotely from a server computing device over a computer network, the browser view being independent of the student view and the teacher view. As described above, although the browser view may be independently configurable relative to the teacher view and student view, it will be appreciated that shared content may exist between the views. Thus for example, the browser view may be an instance of the student view, which is viewable remotely via a web browser operated on a wide variety of devices, and which provides a subset of the functionality available in the student view.
At 606, the method may include during the presentation session, displaying a class view of the educational presentation at a class display device in communication with the teacher computing device, the class view being independent of the student view and the teacher view.
At 608, the method may include presenting a poll embedded in the educational presentation, a view of the poll being viewable in each of the student view and the teacher view. A view of the poll also may be viewable in the class view and the browser view.
At 610, the method may include receiving poll feedback from the student computing device of each of the plurality of students, the poll feedback being viewable in the teacher view. The method may thus further include displaying the poll feedback from each of the plurality of students in the teacher view. In some configurations, the poll feedback is viewable from the plurality of students is viewable in the teacher view alone. As discussed below, the student computing devices may be virtually any suitable computing device, such as a personal computing device, portable laptop computing device, a personal digital assistant, and a browser-enabled mobile communication device. Various user input devices may be used to submit poll feedback through these student computing devices, including a keyboard, mouse, trackpad, and/or remote control. The remote control may, for example, be an infrared wireless remote control configured with one or more buttons, such as a clicker device. The mouse, for example, may be a wireless presentation mouse enabled for Bluetooth® communication with the computing device, and configured with presentation controls by which poll feedback may be input. Of course, various other suitable user input devices may also be utilized with the student computing devices for the purpose of sending poll feedback, annotations, and other input.
At 612, the method may include presenting a summary of the poll feedback in the teacher view and the student view. The summary of the poll feedback also may be presented in the class view and the browser view.
At 614, the method may include receiving a teacher annotation. A teacher annotation may be generated from input at the teacher computing device in the manner described above, for example.
At 616, the method may include updating the educational presentation to include the teacher annotation that is viewable in the teacher view and the student view. The teacher annotation also may be viewable in the class view and the browser view.
At 618, the method may include receiving a plurality of student annotations that are viewable in the teacher view. The method may further include displaying the plurality of student annotations in the teacher view. In some configurations, the annotations from the plurality of students are viewable in the teacher view alone.
At 620, the method may include updating the educational presentation to include a selected one or more of the plurality of student annotations in the student view and/or selected poll feedback received from the plurality of students. The selection may be made based on input received from a teacher at the teacher computing device, for example.
At 622, the method may include storing a version of the educational presentation that includes the teacher annotations and the selected one of the student annotations in storage accessible by the teacher computing device and the student computing device of each of the plurality of students. For example, the version of the educational presentation may be stored in a storage device of the teacher computing device which may be accessible by the student computing device via the network. As another example, the version of the educational presentation may be stored in a storage device remote from the teacher computing device and the student computing devices, such as in a storage device of a server computing device. The version of the educational presentation may be accessible by teacher computing device and/or the student computing devices by communicating with the server computing device over the network.
It will be appreciated that initiating the presentation, creating the independent views, presenting interactive content (e.g., poll and feedback), and updating the educational presentation with annotations may be accomplished by a presentation module of the presentation application program, as described above. Further, receiving interactive content such as poll feedback and student annotations may be accomplished by an interaction module of the presentation application program, as described above.
The above systems and methods may promote effective student-teacher interaction and collaboration during presentation of an educational presentation. By presenting polls and other assessment mechanisms embedded in the educational presentation and receiving immediate real-time feedback from students, a teacher can adjust lesson presentation content or pacing as needed to meet lesson plan goals. Moreover, the feedback information may be available for in-class review or grading. In this way, real-time classroom experiences may be enriched.
Furthermore, by dynamically updating the educational presentation with teacher annotations and/or selected student annotations, the educational presentation may be enhanced with relevant content which may be available for future use or review. Further, student participation may be increased for large class sizes or in situations with limited discussion time, and also participation from students who may be intimidated from speaking out in class may be increased. In this way, teacher presentation and student note taking and feedback experience may be enhanced.
Further, via the browser view, authorized third parties, such as students and parents of students, may view lessons from home, including the interactive content such as student annotations and feedback that has been made available to the browser view by the teacher. In this manner, students may review portions the classroom experience from home, for example, and parents may share the educational experience with their children.
It will be appreciated that the embodiments described herein may be implemented, for example, via computer-executable instructions or code, such as programs, stored on computer-readable storage media and executed by a computing device, such as a processor of server computing subsystem, for example. Generally, programs include routines, objects, components, data structures, and the like that perform particular tasks or implement particular abstract data types. As used herein, the term “program” may connote a single program or multiple programs acting in concert, and may be used to denote applications, services, or any other type or class of program.
